After the surprising success our visit at the Ryman was, we walked down to the Country Music Hall of Fame to see what else we could learn. There was more history and less history all at once. It is a collection of multitudes of stage outfits, guitars, and paraphernalia from the country music stars of the last hundred years or so. While it was cool seeing outfits from Taylor Swift, Laney Wilson, Garth Brooks, Carrie Underwood, and Blake Shelton among many others, it didn't feel as personal. Still very cool to see these things, but we didn't linger long.
The car though, insane! It was personalized by Nudie's (a shop that personalizes and blings out all of the stage outfits), and it was wild. Guns, holsters, silver coins, long horns...every inch of the car had been decked out for an outlaw. It was wild!
I think the Hatch Show Print Shop at the end of the tour was very cool though. While we were at the Ryman we commented how cool it was that all of the promo posters all had the same style. Well that's because they're all made by hand by the same print shop. We got to watch them work and that was awesome. I wish I had place for a Hatch print somewhere in my house because there was something about the nostalgia of them that spoke to me.
Hall of Fame walk right out front. Nashville was a surprisingly bright city.
